Making Facebook Work For You in Four Easy Steps

 facebook logo

Greetings,

     First off, before you read this: If you aren’t on Facebook. Go Register. NOW. I’m not kidding. Go register. You’ll be happier.

   For those of you who already have registered… here is a fun video to watch instead:

    Now that you are registered for Facebook I’ve got some pretty simple advice to help make use of your new profile so you can utilize it to grow your business.

  1. Manage your profile. make sure that your Privacy Settings prevent any of your random connections from tagging you in pictures you may not want anyone else to see. Do this by selecting “Only Me” for Photos and videos tagged of you. This way you see the pictures first and can decide if you want to post them to your profile. Its like prescreening.
  2. Finish the Profile. Fill out ALL of the sections in your profile. The more information that you share the more of a potential connection you will make with the people you friend. Make sure to link to your business website, email and any other Social Networking pages you may have.
  3. Sign up for Groups and Fan Pages. This will introduce you to and give you opportunities to interact with people outside your immediate circle of friends and family.
  4. Look for Connections, and never stop looking. Constantly review the find a friend section in Facebook to build your network. Chat people up on their walls. Like/Comment on their status updates and the things they say.

Following those steps will help your Facebook profile work for you, as opposed to just being a time sink.

 

       Do any of you folks out there have some tips on how to  make Facebook work for you? I’d love to hear what you have to say about it.

Stay Savvy!
